Early Rising
Well day one of waking up early to write was a bust. I went to bed early-ish with my husband, but when my alarm went off I hit the snooze and hid it under my pillow...repeatedly. I finally got up at 7:45 and then really only because I had promised to watch my friends kids at 8. Maybe I just needed to catch up on sleep from staying up so late all of last week and tomorrow will go better. Theoretically I am supposed to be getting up tomorrow to go to the gym at 5:30, so I'm not sure if I should feel guilty about getting up early and not going to the gym, not getting up early and thus not writing or exercising, or about getting up to go to the gym when I can't manage to get up to write. So any of you early risers have any tricks to share?

Getting up early is torturous! That's why I go over a week without writing sometimes. Once I get going a few days in a row it's easier to keep going. Trail mix motivated me for a little while. :) I need to post on here soon!
ReplyDeleteTrail mix huh? Maybe I'll have to try that tomorrow. ;)
ReplyDelete1160 more words this afternoon. It's a lot harder to write while being constantly interrupted by a 4 and 6 year old. Hoping to get up to at least 20 pages by Wednesday. (14 pages, 8,187 words and counting)
